Hailed from Araluen, Australia, Roger Thwaites is a folk singer released two albums. "Age Of Time" is his second album released right after the first album called "200 Years" in 1970. Don't miss Roger's growling voice!

..."Well, from the first song on, a surprisingly good LP which appears almost as if it had been produced with my specific tastes in mind! The vocals are mostly big and booming with plenty of echo, the songs are great, the lyrics interesting (mostly about the Australian outback and people), the backing a peculiar mix of folk, early rock'n'roll, psychedelia, country and pop, with some songs featuring scorching acid guitar and studio effects. The closest reference point would be Lee Hazlewood's solo LPs, which happen to be among my favourites, and if Mr Thwaites hadn't heard Lee (did his solo records get released in Australia?) then he surely must have been a fan of Elvis and Johnny Cash...."

Georgie πολλά ευχαριστώ για αυτή εδώ την ανάρτηση. Το "Age Of Time" ακούγεται πολύ καλό στο player του blog. Περιμένω να ακούσω και το υπόλοιπο άλμπουμ!!
Εχει μερικες πολυ καλες στιγμες...εμενα μου αρεσει παρα πολυ.
Το τελευταιο κομματι το "Red Light Child" κλεινει εκπληκτικα το αλμπουμ με μια πιο Pop & Rock διαθεση, σε σχεση παντα με το ειδος που υπηρετει ο καλλιτεχνης δηλαδη το folk & singer songwriter ιδιωμα...

Thank you! And what a stellar blog. Cheers.
Great album, I really enjoyed the songs. They sound great, even 40 years down the line. A cool mix of country-rock'n'roll-folk. Well done.
